What is the religious ruling on a man shortening his garment, and is this considered dayyathah (cuckoldry/lack of protective jealousy)? And what should he do if his colleague speaks ill again of a respectable girl whom he admires and wishes to propose to, especially after his colleague previously described her as "so-and-so has an amazing figure"?
You have fulfilled your duty of enjoining good and forbidding evil. If this person returns to such talk, then forbid it and explain to him its impermissibility. You are not permitted to strike or slap him, for disciplinary punishment (ta'zir) and correction are not within the authority of individuals.
